WordPress Trac: Ticket #5556: permalinks fail when post title is a yearhttps://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/5556
<p>
Hi,
</p>
<p>
I wrote a post titled "2007" and my permalink structure is
domainname.com/article-slug/ (no year)
and in all the permalinks of the posts,etc, the post permalink appears as
domainname.com/2007/ which, when clicked on leads to the 2007 archive page.
</p>
<p>
It's always good to check for the post slug being a numerical or a year, and attach a -1 or something to it so it doesen't clash with the main functioning.
</p>
<p>
I can take care of it in a couple of weeks. can some admin assign the task to me or someone else? the new year's around the corner and a lot of people will have year titled posts.
</p>
